Title: Tipped Kansas Cow
Location: Crown Center
Artist: Bill McCall
Sponsor: Yellow Corporation

And you thought the Leaning Tower of Pisa was a wonder. This work of bovine art is covered with sunflowers to commemorate the State of Kansas’ flower, the sunflower. The front legs were reconfigured to give the cow a "three point stance" for greater stability. A special bracket was formed for the nose. It is anchored to the concrete slab at three points; nose and front legs. The eyes are closed for sleeping and the teats are reconfigured to point down when it is tipped up on its nose. Tipped Kansas Cow is truly a beautiful and unique piece. Don’t let this one get away!

This cow was sold in the internet auction hosted by Amazon.com that began on October 5, 2001, immediately following the close of the live auction and ran for approximately three weeks.
